Elizabeth Arden My Fifth Avenue is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. My Fifth Avenue opens with Floral Notes, Lemon, Mandarin, and Violet Leaf, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley, and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Iris, and Amberwood. Elizabeth Arden's My Fifth Avenue carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag, love. Some reckon it's a fresh, modern twist on a classic, while others find it generic and disappointingly weak. Expect compliments if it clicks with your skin, but don't be shocked if it leaves you underwhelmed.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its clean, fresh floral profile, make it ideal for office wear and casual outings where subtlety is key. Some find it elegant enough for an evening out, but its lack of projection might make it less suitable for formal events.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

My Fifth Avenue opens with a bright, airy burst of citrus and delicate floral notes, hinting at springtime and fresh laundry. As it settles, a sweet pear and creamy white floral heart emerges, dominated by jasmine and lily of the valley, with hints of aquatic lotus. The dry down is a soft, clean musk, underpinned by warm amberwood and a whisper of cedar, giving it a sophisticated, comforting finish.
